Language: English Series: Weekly Law Reports ; (1989) 1 WLR 201-219(19)Publication details: 1989Subject(s): Summary: HL 24 January 1989 Appeal by Robbins (R) from CA decision affirming the SOS`s confirmation of a compulsory purchase order made by the council (A) pursuant to Town and Country Planning Act 1971 s114 in respect of a windmill owned by R. HL held that a requirement in a repairs notice issued by a planning authority for the owner of a listed building to carry out such works as were reasonably necessary for the proper preservation of the building referred to the preservation of the building as it was when listed and not as it was when the notice was served. The inclusion of unnecessary works did not invalidate the remainder of the notice. Therefore the cpo issued after the repair notice was not complied with was valid and the appeal was dismissed.
